Bury St Edmunds Leisure Centre is set to host its fourth Sport Relief Mile at the West Suffolk Athletics Arena on Sunday March 20 in aid of Comic Relief.
The Bury St Edmunds Mile will take place at the Centre from 10am to 1pm, with registration open from 9.30am.
Participants can run or walk a one, three or six miles around the track with a choice of two start times of 10.10am or 10.40am at the arena.
Each wave will start with mass warm up sessions led by qualified instructors from the leisure centre.
Participants can sign up now for a fundraising kit at www.sportrelief.com. The money raised by the public is spent by Comic Relief to help people living incredibly tough lives, across the UK and the world’s poorest communities. Sport Relief takes places every other year.
Ian Evans, Abbeycroft’s Physical Activity Development Manager, said: “This is the fourth Sport Relief Mile that we have hosted here in Bury St Edmunds and it has always been a very popular event.
“Our experience here at the leisure centre is that people very often need a goal to aim for when trying to increase their physical activity and this is a fantastic target. You can bring the whole family and use the event to motivate you and raise money for a brilliant cause at the same time.”
